The problem here is that everyone on this board is commenting on something that they are not connected to.  Mainstream Muslims, yes I know them and talk to them daily, have all told me that if they are NOT the terrorists and why should they back away based on extremism.  A physicin this a.m. said she wants to back away from it ONLY because she is afraid of such a backlash against mainstream Muslims.  As she put it, "radical crazy people committted 9/11" and since then she is tagged as a radical instead of a Muslim who observes her religion.

Why don't any of you remember how offensive it was to have a convent at Auschwitz?  Do you remember the trouble that created THERE and HERE in Albany?  Probably not because none of you are involved in that dialogue.

Look, the liberals NEED to create a 'second class' of citizens. First it's blacks, then it's gays, then it's seniors, then it's women,  then it's muslims the list is endless..... This mosque won't last forever.....so then what? I know.......GAY MUSLIMS!

The liberal socialists must be at the drawing board as we speak creating yet another group of second class citizens!
